Tutorial Introduction
This is the official CustomTkinter tutorial section. Each tutorial builds a small app step by step and ends with the full code, which you can copy and run. If you are new to CustomTkinter, start with Your First App. The tutorials are written for CustomTkinter 6.0, but most of the code also works with version 5.
For a description of all widgets and their arguments, see the documentation.
Beginner
Write your first app, get familiar with the grid geometry system, create frames and scrollable frames, set up the window and update widgets with variables.
Widgets
Forms with validation, dependent dropdowns, images and icons, tables with Treeview, dialogs, a text editor and a settings window with tabs.
App Structure
